Key Events

That's it from Conte

This Chelsea boss is done for now, really quite brief this afternoon, and now we are into the embargo section of the press conference.

13:26

Tough task for the rest of the competition?

To win a trophy in England is also very tough. Before to win a trophy you know you have to face strong teams. It is normal. There is United and Tottenham and other teams who want to write the history of this tournament.

13:25

Why is the FA Cup so special?

This is a great competition. The oldest in the world and we have to try to go into the next round. Last season we were very good to reach the final at Wembley. Now we have this possibility to reach for another time the semi-final, but it won’t be easy.

13:24

Special plans for Vardy?

The special plans is to try to defend well. We know about Vardy and his characteristic, he is a clever player and is good to attack the space and find the right time to do this.

13:23

Why Leicester are so dangerous?

I think that we are talking about a team that two years ago won the title. In the squad there are many players with good qualities, talented players. They want to fight a lot and in the game at home we suffered a lot, they run a lot and have dangerous players. We must pay great attention.

13:22

Tough to lift the team?

This is football. It was tough to go out. This is football, we have to face another competition and we have to have great confidence.

13:22

Respect for referees

If you want to answer in an honest way, in this country there is a lot of respect for referee, the problem is in other countries. You saw that against Barcelona, they had four or five around the referee, not in England

13:21

Should England go to the World Cup with the dispute with Russia?

This is not a question for a coach.

13:20

Courtois or Caballero?

I think that we are talking about two good goalkeepers, Thibaut and Willy. On Sunday I will try to make the best decision because we want to go the next round.

13:19

Best team on Sunday?

We are not playing every three days, so for this reason I will pick up the best solution for tomorrow’s game.

13:19

FA Cup or top four finish?

We have to try to do both. To try to go into the next round and reach the semi-final of the FA Cup. It won’t be easy, Leciester are a good team and then we have to try to do our best in the league

13:18

FA Cup

Every trophy is important for us. Now we fight until the end of every competition. Now there is the FA Cup, this is a quarter-final and if we win then we play at Wembley. Every competition is important for us.

Morata and Cahill dropped from internationals

I think that this question is for the coach of the national team, not for me. My only worries are to try to have the players in the best form for Chelsea. Then there is the national team coach for the country.
